Patient's question:
Often experience a dull pain in the lower right abdomen. I thought I was getting sick, and I had a B done three times in total. The doctor said I was too tense and that B didn't need to be done so frequently. He suggested it might be related to some intestinal adhesion after surgery. The last B was taken at the end of 2011, and I haven't had a follow-up since then. In the past few days, a cyst has formed in my right abdomen, and I've been experiencing dull pain every day. I'd like to consult a doctor about the situation—is it possible that the ovarian cyst has recurred?Doctor's answer:
You have undergone a minimally invasive surgery for an ovarian cyst, and your postoperative follow-up ultrasound is normal. It is highly unlikely for the ovarian cyst to recur. The possibility of recurrence after ovarian cyst surgery is very low. The mild abdominal pain may be due to some adhesions, or it could be related to your concerns.It is recommended that you do not get too anxious. You can visit the hospital for abdominal X-ray and a detailed ultrasound examination to alleviate your concerns. There are several treatment methods for ovarian cysts, but the diagnostic approach varies depending on the patient's symptoms. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
